President Abdelmadjid Tebboune presided over a meeting of the Council of Ministers today, Sunday, at the Presidential Palace.
The council convened to discuss several key legislative and infrastructure projects vital to Algeria’s economic and technological development. A central focus of the meeting was the draft law outlining the general rules pertaining to trust services for electronic transactions and electronic identification.
This draft law is considered crucial for fostering a secure and reliable digital environment, facilitating online commerce, and enhancing citizen access to government services. The legislation aims to establish a legal framework that promotes confidence in electronic interactions, a necessary step for Algeria’s digital transformation.
Furthermore, the Council of Ministers reviewed presentations concerning the connection of major agricultural projects dedicated to strategic crops to the national electricity grid. This initiative is intended to boost agricultural production and ensure the efficient operation of large-scale farming endeavors. By providing reliable power to these projects, the government aims to enhance food security and reduce reliance on imports.
The meeting also addressed new measures included in the draft traffic law. These measures aim to improve road safety, reduce traffic congestion, and modernize Algeria’s transportation infrastructure. Details of the specific measures were discussed, with a focus on their potential impact on drivers, pedestrians, and the overall transportation system.
The Council of Ministers meeting underscores the government’s commitment to advancing Algeria’s technological infrastructure, strengthening its agricultural sector, and improving its transportation network. Further details regarding the outcomes of the meeting are expected to be released in the coming days.
DZWatch will continue to provide updates on these important developments.
